Farmry’s skid steer stump grinder attachment is designed for efficient stump removal with a strong focus on safety, reliability, and ease of operation.
It uses a simplified hydraulic system to reduce unnecessary components while maintaining stable torque and cutting performance.
The grinder connects quickly to your skid steer via a quick coupler and is optimized for 15–45 HP machines, making it a cost-effective solution for removing stumps on land, lawns, gardens, and planting areas without relying on PTO-driven equipment.

This product is a skid steer stump grinder attachment, not a PTO stump grinder.
- It does not use a PTO shaft, PTO driveline shaft, or 3 point PTO
